5 Things to Do with Coffee Filters

Organize, clean and recycle using scraps from your morning pick-me-up

1. Clean mirrors, windows and wine glasses Put your hand inside like a mitt and wipe. Filters are lint-free and leave no streaks. 2. Catch drips and crumbles Have kids use for cookies and other messy foods. Pop ice cream sticks through a hole in the bottom. 3. Line flowerpots Put a filter inside the pot to stop soil from leaking through the drainage holes on the bottom. 4. Protect your china Keep your best dishes chip- and scratch-free by putting one between each piece when stacking. 5. Save the wine after you've broken the cork If you pour the wine through a filter, you'll catch the lost pieces of cork.
